Inner Dowsing, Race Bank and North Ridge Site of Community Interest MMO Fisheries Assessment DRAFT - 13 October 2016 Inner Dowsing, Race Bank and North Ridge Site of Community Interest MMO Fisheries Assessment 1. Summary Table 1 shows a summary of the outcomes of this assessment of the impact of fishing in the portion of the Inner Dowsing, Race Bank and North Ridge Site of Community Interest (SCI) inshore of 12 nautical miles (nm). The impacts of fishing using demersal towed gear on Sabellaria spinulosa reefs were not considered as this interaction is categorised as red in the Fisheries in European Marine Sites Matrix and is subject to management without the need for a site specific assessment.

Introduction Table 2 shows the name and legal status of the site. Table 2: Details of Area Name of site(s) Legal status Name and legal status of site: Inner Dowsing, Race Bank and North Ridge SCI The Inner Dowsing, Race Bank and North Ridge SCI is located off the south Lincolnshire coast in the vicinity of Skegness, extending eastwards and north from Burnham Flats on the North Norfolk coast, occupying the Wash Approaches. Water depths are generally shallow and mostly less than 30m below chart datum. The area encompasses a wide range of sandbank types (banks bordering channels, linear relict banks, sinusoidal banks with distinctive ‘comb-like’ subsidiary banks) and biogenic reef of the worm Sabellaria spinulosa. These features lie almost entirely on the glacial till of the Bolders Bank Formation which is responsible for much of the evident surface topography, especially glacial mounds, channels and hollows. The group of banks within the Wash Approaches are generally between 15 to 20 km long and 1.5 to 3 km wide. They arise from the basal layers by 7 to 12 metres with crest heights generally less than 5m below chart datum. The sedimentary component of the banks is fine to medium sands, predominantly being derived from coastal erosional processes over the last 5,000 years following the last glacial retreat and marine inundation. The site is exposed to wave and tidal streams and will therefore be naturally adapted to certain levels of natural disturbance. Areas of high mobility are more tolerant to certain pressures and recoverability is generally quicker. This site is considered to be relatively stable, however due to the natural dynamism of sandbanks, the potential oscillation of sandbanks as a result of hydrodynamic processes, tolerance and recoverability of species will vary. Abundant S. spinulosa agglomerations have consistently been recorded within the boundary. Survey data indicate that reef structures are concentrated in certain areas of the site, with a patchy Page 2 of 68 DRAFT - 13 October 2016 distribution of crust-forming aggregations across the site. The main areas of S. spinulosa reef are found along the Lincolnshire coast south of Skegness at Lynn Knock and Skegness Middle Ground (south-east part of the site); just north of Docking Shoal bank; and associated with the southern edge of Silver Pit (in the northern part of the site). This site lies across three administrative areas: 0 to 6 nm offshore, 6 to 12 nm offshore and offshore of 12 nm. Table 3 shows the high level conservation objective for the site’s features and subfeatures. Table 3: Designated features and conservation objectives Fisheries matrix sub Feature Subfeature Conservation objective feature Low diversity Subtidal sand/subtidal dynamic sand coarse sediment 1110 Sandbanks which communities Maintain or restore to are slightly covered by Moderate diversity favourable condition sea water at all times gravelly muddy Subtidal mixed sand communities sediments Sabellaria Maintain or restore to 1170 Reef Sabellaria spp. reef spinulosa reefs favourable condition 2.1 Sandbanks Two areas of sandbanks which are slightly covered by water at all times (hereafter ‘sandbanks’) feature in this site occur inshore of 12 nm. These are the Inner Dowsing sandbank and part of the Race Bank sandbank. As a result of the potential migration and oscillation of sandbanks over time, Natural England have incorporated within the feature extent a 500 metre margin to ensure that the entire feature is included these margins are displayed in figure 1. The Natural England and JNCC conservation advice package for this site notes that sandbanks feature consists of two subfeatures: • Low diversity dynamic sand communities • Moderate diversity gravelly muddy sand communities Much of the benthic community on the crest area of sandbanks found within the site is typical of a stressed, mobile sediment area. Communities are characterised by being largely impoverished, with low species abundance and diversity. They tend to be characterised by a few polychaete species (Nepthys sp, Spio sp, Glycera sp, Eteone sp and Phloe sp) and nemertean worms. Representative communities equate to a number of biotopes including SS.SSa.IFiSa.NcirBat (Nephtys cirrosa and Bathyporeia spp in infralittoral sand) and SS.SSa.IFiSa.IMoSa (infralittoral mobile clean sand with sparse fauna) (Entec, 2008b). Examples of gravelly muddy sand communities can be found in the troughs between sand banks. In more gravelly areas a diverse attached epifauna is present, including bryozoans (for example Page 3 of 68 DRAFT - 13 October 2016 Flustra foliacea, Conopeum reticulum and Electra pilosa), sponges, hydroids (Hydrallmania falcata, Tubularia indivisa) and tube building worms (Pomatoceros sp). The tube building amphipod Ampelisca diadema is also abundant in some areas. Mobile epifauna include a variety of brittle stars and small crabs as well as pink shrimp (Pandalus montagui) and lobster (Homarus gammarus). In a number of places mussel (Mytilus edulis) density is reasonably high (Entec, 2008b). Understanding of the precise distribution of the sandbank subfeatures is limited by a lack of data. Natural England has advised that the distribution of EUNIS1 level 3 subtidal sediments can be used to inform subfeature distribution. The following EUNIS level 3 subtidal sediments exist within the sandbank feature inshore of 12 nm: • subtidal sand; • subtidal mixed sediments; • subtidal coarse sediment. In particular areas of subtidal mixed sediment within the boundary of the sandbank feature and associated margin may indicate the presence of the ‘moderate diversity gravelly muddy sand communities’ subfeature. Biotopes associated with the sandbank sub-features in this site are listed in table 4 Table 4. Biotopes associated with the sandbank subfeatures Biotope code Biotope name Dynamic sand communities SS.SSa.IFiSa.NcirBat Nephtys cirrosa and Bathyporeia spp. in infralittoral sand SS.SSa.IFISa.IMoSa Infralittoral mobile clean sand with sparse fauna SS.SCS.ICS.Glap Glycera lapidum in impoverished infralittoral mobile gravel and sand SS.SCS.CCS.PomB Pomatoceros triqueter, Balanus crenatus and bryozoan crusts on mobile circalittoral cobbles and pebbles SS.SCS.CCS.MedLumVen Venerid bivalves in circalittoral coarse sand or gravel SS.Ssa.IMuSa.EcorEns Echinocardium cordatum and Ensis spp. in lower shore or shallow sublittoral muddy fine sand SS.Ssa.IFISa.ScupHyd Sertularia cupressina and Hydrallmania falcata on tideswept sublittoral sand with cobbles or pebbles SS.SCS.ICS.SLan Dense Lanice conchilega and other polychaetes in tide-swept infralittoral sand and mixed gravelly sand Gravelly muddy sand communities SS.SCS.ICS.SLan Dense Lanice conchilega and other polychaetes in tideswept infralittoral sand and mixed gravelly sand 1 The European Nature Information System (EUNIS) habitat classification system is a comprehensive pan-European system to facilitate the harmonised description and collection of data across Europe through the use of criteria for habitat identification. http://eunis.eea.europa.eu/about Page 4 of 68 DRAFT - 13 October 2016 SS.SCS.ICS.HeloMsim Hesionura elongata and Microphthalmus similis with other interstitial polychaetes in infralittoral mobile coarse sand 2.2 Reefs S. spinulosa reefs are an ephemeral subfeature which is subject to constant creation and destruction across its possible range. Identified areas of S. spinulosa reef are therefore subject to a higher level of uncertainty than many other habitat features. In 2013 three areas of S. spinulosa reef were identified, which are currently subject to management through an MMO byelaw prohibiting bottom towed gears over these areas. One of these areas lies between the 6-12 nm boundaries and the remaining two areas lie inshore of 6 nm2. In July 2015, updated advice from Natural England and the Joint Nature Conservation Committee (JNCC) confirmed areas of additional S. spinulosa reef within the site, a significant expansion of the Lynn Knock reef and a new area known as Silver Pit reef (see chart 4). The Lynn Knock area includes areas of mosaic habitat characterised by patchy S. spinulosa reef with areas of high and medium reefiness distributed throughout. Natural England and JNCC advised that the area of mosaic habitat is managed in the same manner as the delineated (non-mosaic) S. spinulosa reef. This assessment therefore treats both the delineated and mosaic areas of reef as S.

  • Environmental and Social Data Sheet
    Luxembourg, 13 December 2011 Environmental and Social Data Sheet Overview Project Name: Offshore Transmission Network Round 2A Project Number: 2011-0265 Country: United Kingdom Project Description: The project concerns a framework facility, for the second transitional Round (Tranche A) under the OFTO (Offshore Transmission Owners) Regulation, which is intended to provide funding for entities that will own and operate the high-voltage transmission assets (≥ 132 kV) connecting large-scale offshore wind farms to the national onshore transmission network. The ownership will be transferred to the entities through a competitive tendering process under the OFTO regulation. The transmission assets which may potentially benefit from this framework facility are associated with the following wind farms; Gwynt y Mor (576 MW located 18km of the north Wales coast), Lincs (250 MW located 8km of Lincolnshire coast) and London Array Phase 1 (630 MW located 20km from shore in the Thames estuary). EIA: Required Not required ⎕ Summary of Environmental and Social Assessment, including key issues and overall conclusion and recommendation Undersea cables, substations and wind farms fall by virtue of their technical characteristics under Annex II of EIA-Directive 85/337/EEC (as amended). According to national regulations an offshore wind farm including its associated infrastructure is subject to a full mandatory EIA including public consultation. Thus all components of this framework facility have been subject to comprehensive EIAs. Having obtained all necessary consents is one of the qualifying pre-conditions for offshore wind farm developers to get accepted for the OFTO transitional regime tender process. In 2002/03 and prior to the development of the project related EIAs, the UK government conducted a Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA), in accordance with the SEA Directive1, for its plan to develop offshore wind in its territory.

  • Preliminary Information Memorandum Lincs Wind Farm Offshore
    Preliminary Information Memorandum Lincs Wind Farm Offshore Transmission Assets November 2010 Lincs Wind Farm Transmission Assets November 2010 SUMMARY In June 2009 the Department of Energy and Climate Change (“DECC”) and the GB energy regulator, the Office of Gas and Electricity Markets (“Ofgem”) introduced a new regulatory regime for licensing offshore electricity transmission. The regime provides an opportunity for investors to acquire offshore electricity transmission assets in Great Britain (“GB”). The first transitional tender round commenced in July 2009 and strong competition has attracted over £4 billion of investment appetite for nine transmission links worth around £1.1 billion. Three preferred bidders have been selected to own and operate the first £800 million worth of transmission links to eight offshore wind farms. All three firms are new entrants to the sector. Ofgem E-Serve, which is the delivery arm of Ofgem, is now launching tenders for the second round of transitional projects. These tenders will be conducted across two tranches of tender exercises. The first tranche of tender exercises (Tranche A) will commence in mid-November 2010. The second tranche of tender exercises are expected to commence in spring 2012 (Tranche B). Projects included in Tranche A are those projects which have been confirmed as qualifying projects by Ofgem E-Serve and have satisfied the necessary tender entry conditions in accordance with the Electricity (Competitive Tenders for Offshore Transmission Licences) Regulations 2010 (“the Tender Regulations”). Projects in Tranche B have been deemed as qualifying projects by Ofgem and have until 31 March 2012 to meet any outstanding requirements in accordance with the Tender Regulations.
